    Snowblower?

    For those of you in the northern climates, when do you put your tractor snowblower on? I’m wrestling with this now…Central NH is a pretty good snow belt. My FEL has helped me immensely this summer and I think I can do without it now. I think the next sunny day, I will do the change-over to the...

    Kubota Snow Blower - Improve

    If I’m not mistaken (have to look it up) but the snowblower manual says to use WOT when operating the blower…same with a mid mount deck as well…anyway, been doing mowing and blowing for years this way and nothing has “blown up” yet…knock on wood, of course…

    Block vs Oil Pan Heater

    There’s a 6 foot 110v cord attached to it…I suppose I could cable tie the cord up to the tractor somewhere…? I’ll look into this…don’t know why I didn’t think of that before???🤪 Maybe I thought it would fall off during snowblowing?

    Block vs Oil Pan Heater

    My block heater (BX25D w/5455HD BLOWER in its “winter mode”) died a couple years ago…I actually bought a new one thinking I could swap it out myself…WRONG. Couldn’t get the bad one unseated from the engine block no matter how hard I tried. Had to quit before I busted a hole in the block. So...

    BX engine cover install

    Mine is a 2012 as well…metal hood and fenders, etc. has 2 plastic “knobs” that you unscrew to loosen the hood to slide it forward. Just a slotted section of the hood that fits beneath the knobs. Pictures of yours would certainly help!

    BX engine cover install

    You mean the “KNOBS” with the plastic heads won’t turn? My older Bx has these. Hood removal is easy but sometimes a pain to re-align when putting it back on…

    New BX decals peeling off

    I have a BX25d that is going on 12 years old and nothing has peeled. I’ll have to look to se if there even ARE any decals on my machine! 😊

    Kubota Snow Blower - Improve

    Just wondering what RPMs you’re running your 5455HD at? I run mine at MAXIMUM RPMS (about 3200-3300 on my BX25D)

    I’ve always just “snugged them up” doesn’t make sense to over tighten a shear pin…now I know what I do is good!

    Kubota Snow Blower - Improve

    I have the BX5455 HD BLOWER for my BX 25D tractor. It excels in all conditions except real SLUSH. Heavy “wet” snow is no problem and I rarely have to get off and clear the chute. SLUSH is a different story of course. I have 200’ of paved driveway and 350’ of “older” recycled asphalt (top is all...

    z726xkw-60 engine mounting bolt

    Were you just “fishing” for problems or was the mower exhibiting some kind of unnatural behavior? Just asking because I have a Z422-54

    Yup, that’s my system too! Hardest thing is getting the mower up in the air but I do have a “MoJack” for that!
